Mangroves offer vital ecological advantages including air and water filtration, coastal and estuarine habitat provision, sediment stabilization, and wave energy dissipation. Their intricate root systems play a key role in safeguarding shorelines from tsu...

A regional wave forecasting system in East Asia, including the Korean Peninsula, was built based on WAVEWATCH III using offshore wind forecast data from the Global Data Assimilation Prediction System. The numerical simulations were performed on the sensi...

Enhanced turbulence triggered by near-inertial wave (NIW) trapping by a mesoscale anticyclone and typhoon ?Kompasu? was observed in the northern South China Sea. The observations provide evidence for the trapping of NIW packets of amplitude ~0.2 m/s near...

Accurate prediction of ocean surface wave attenuation in polar marginal ice zones remains a challenge. In this article, an alternative approach to the problem is introduced, in which the ice layer is represented with a modified version of the vegetation ...

Coastal convection is often organized into multiple mesoscale systems that propagate in either direction across the coastline (i.e., landward and oceanward). These systems interact non-trivially with synoptic and intraseasonal disturbances such as convec...

The Morison equation is widely used to estimate the loads by surface waves on cylinders. The formulation and coefficients determination method of the original work by Morison et al. are revisited, it is found that there exist some issues yet to be explai...

The shoaling transformation from generally linear deep-water waves to asymmetric shallow-water waves modifies wave shapes and causes near-bed orbital velocities to become asymmetrical, contributing to net sediment transport. In this work, we used two met...

Mediterranean eddies (meddies) play an essential role in transferring heat, salinity and momentum into the Atlantic Ocean. The rate of heat (and salt) flux from the meddy and its ultimate lifetime are key proxies to understanding how meddies impact the r...

A wave state related sea surface roughness parameterization scheme that takes into account the impact of sea foam is proposed in this study. Using eight observational datasets, the performances of two most widely used wave state related parameterizations...

Direct microstructure observations and fine-scale measurements of an anticyclonic mesoscale eddy were conducted in the northern South China Sea in July 2020. An important finding was that suppressed turbulent mixing in the thermocline existed at the cent...
